Herbert Marcuse
Herbert Marcuse was a German-American philosopher and sociologist associated with the Frankfurt School of critical theory. His work in the mid-20th century focused on the critique of modern capitalist societies, the role of technology in shaping human consciousness, and the potential for revolutionary social change. His influential book 'One-Dimensional Man' critiques consumer society and advocates for a new form of liberation that transcends traditional Marxist thought, emphasizing the importance of human needs and the potential for a radical transformation of society.
